Listener comments!
	12:04am Sean Daily: First comment! Woo hoo!
	12:07am Matt from Springfield: Hi Mike! Glad to catch you live--at least part of the show! "Oh Well", that's a familiar song, was wondering about the title.
	12:08am Uncle Michael: Third' comment! Woo hoo!
	12:10am Uncle Michael: I go many months without remembering to come here. I like real radio. I should stop forgetting.
	12:12am R I S K Y: AHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO IN MIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	12:16am Elwyn: After looking at that picture, does anyone wonder what the "Let It Bleed" cake tasted like and who ate it?
	12:18am Chop Scott: Excellent! Enjoying you on air tonight---
	12:20am Mike Oz: The 'Let It Bleed' cake? I think they put it in a blender and then Keef shot it up.
	12:21am Mike Sin: Hey folks! Thanks for tuning in!
	12:33am Elwyn: I hope we hit 1982 soon. I got back from holiday yesterday and just realised that I left my Cocteau Twins compilation of 1982-2000 in the CD drive of my parents' computer 1000 km away. :-(
	12:36am Danne D: What an awesome start, Mike! If there was a WFMU fill-in DJ premium I'd be getting yours. Whoa Stormtrooper Elwyn is here! Sorry about the loss of your CD :(
	12:38am Danne D: That Rotary Connection Song was awesome. Actually there's just a ton of awesome here. I wish I could stay up for it all but thank goodness for the archives! :)
	12:38am Elwyn: @Danne: How are you? It's been a really good day so far: lots of people saying "Happy birthday" on FB, lunch at the German/Austrian restaurant paid for by work, finally worked out why my program wasn't working. I'll see my parents at Christmas so it's not too long to wait. Also, I'm going to Star Wars Burlesque tonight. Ha ha ha!
	12:40am blee: 17th comment! Whoo Hooo!
	12:43am chris: great opening set!
	12:44am Danne D: Happy Birthday Elwyn!!! :D
	12:49am DJ Keili: I LOVE YOU MIKE SIN! Happy Thanksgiving! AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELWYN! I <3 U!
	12:53am Elwyn: @Danne D & Keili: I love you two! <3
	12:56am Danne D: Keili!!! :D Hiya :)
	1:13am Mike Oz: For The Elastic Band see 'Rubbles'. '8 1/2 Hours ...' was the B of a song called 'Do Unto Others' (Decca, Sep 1968). From the English Midlands & North Wales, they included guitarist Andy Scott later of The Sweet. Great show, Mike. I particularly enjoyed the opening Fleetwood Mac / Rotary Connection sequence.
	1:22am Mike Sin: Hey! Thanks for the info! And, thanks to all the folks commenting!
	1:23am Julie: oooh! I have Suzi Quatro doing this
	1:28am Connie Bagoosh: Luvin the toons out heah in the shaolin!
	1:29am Danne D: Hiya/bya Julie :) I gotta check out now, Mike. Will catch the back-half on the archive. Really enjoyed listening. Have a good night everyone!
	1:49am yair yona (tel aviv, Earth): Mike, yours is my fav morning show, no doubt.
	1:50am Jeff In Hawaii: Wow, thanks for the pep talk, them dad.
	1:51am Mike Sin: Them is just rying to help you out!
	1:53am blee: Great show, I feel it kicking in.
	1:54am Jeff In Hawaii: Yeah, well THEM ain't the boss of me anymore. Uncle Ken said the same thing!
	1:57am Jeff In Hawaii: Mm. Maybe them is right. It's time to go take a good hard look
	2:03am Jeff In Hawaii: Great show tonight! And thanks
	2:14am David Shortell: Was "Paxton's Back Street Carnival" a bonus track added by Sundazed? Back in high school a classmate taped the original LP for me, but I don't remember that song. A pity it didn't make it onto the "Psych-Out" soundtrack!
	2:16am Mike Sin: Hey - I wish I could rsspond to each of your comments individually, but just don't have the dexterity! But, I really thank you all.
	2:17am Justinline: Oh man . . . this Hey Joe rendition has got me in a trance (Redondo Beacn, CA).
	2:26am Mike Sin: David S -- I think there were two versions of that LP. Will have to check.
	2:42am Elwyn: I've got to go. I enjoyed your show Mike!
	2:45am Terre T: This has to be the best show you've ever done! I love it--throwing many curves and the pacing and mixes are amazing! I gotta go to sleep now-but i don't want to!
	2:46am Mike Oz: David S, yes, "Paxton Street Carnival" was on the original 1st album by The Strawberry Alarm Clock, 'Incense And Peppermints'. Perhaps your tape came from a later compilation such as the 1990 release titled 'Incense & Peppermints' (note ampersand) which includes only four tracks from the 1st LP plus the B of "Incense ..", "The Birdman Of Alkatrash", and later tracks like "Sit With The Guru" and their 1969 version of "Good Morning Starshine". Mike S, as you say, The Rokes were a UK band working in Italy. They did Italian-language versions of US & UK hits as well as songs by Italian writers in Italian such as the original version (don't know the title) of "Let's Live For Today" later a US hit for The Grass Roots (who also recorded "Bella Linda", also originally by The Rokes). Phew!
	2:57am David Shortell: Thanks, Mike Oz. No, it wasn't the 1990 comp. So either I've got a lousy memory or my classmate short-changed me!
	6:44am rob: Super Strummer

	12:18am Chop Scott: Excellent! Enjoying you on air tonight---
	12:20am Mike Oz: The 'Let It Bleed' cake? I think they put it in a blender and then Keef shot it up.
	12:21am Mike Sin: Hey folks! Thanks for tuning in!
	12:33am Elwyn: I hope we hit 1982 soon. I got back from holiday yesterday and just realised that I left my Cocteau Twins compilation of 1982-2000 in the CD drive of my parents' computer 1000 km away. :-(
	12:36am Danne D: What an awesome start, Mike! If there was a WFMU fill-in DJ premium I'd be getting yours. Whoa Stormtrooper Elwyn is here! Sorry about the loss of your CD :(
	12:38am Danne D: That Rotary Connection Song was awesome. Actually there's just a ton of awesome here. I wish I could stay up for it all but thank goodness for the archives! :)
	12:38am Elwyn: @Danne: How are you? It's been a really good day so far: lots of people saying "Happy birthday" on FB, lunch at the German/Austrian restaurant paid for by work, finally worked out why my program wasn't working. I'll see my parents at Christmas so it's not too long to wait. Also, I'm going to Star Wars Burlesque tonight. Ha ha ha!

	1:13am Mike Oz: For The Elastic Band see 'Rubbles'. '8 1/2 Hours ...' was the B of a song called 'Do Unto Others' (Decca, Sep 1968). From the English Midlands & North Wales, they included guitarist Andy Scott later of The Sweet. Great show, Mike. I particularly enjoyed the opening Fleetwood Mac / Rotary Connection sequence.
	1:22am Mike Sin: Hey! Thanks for the info! And, thanks to all the folks commenting!

	1:57am Jeff In Hawaii: Mm. Maybe them is right. It's time to go take a good hard look
	2:03am Jeff In Hawaii: Great show tonight! And thanks
	2:14am David Shortell: Was "Paxton's Back Street Carnival" a bonus track added by Sundazed? Back in high school a classmate taped the original LP for me, but I don't remember that song. A pity it didn't make it onto the "Psych-Out" soundtrack!
	2:16am Mike Sin: Hey - I wish I could rsspond to each of your comments individually, but just don't have the dexterity! But, I really thank you all.
	2:17am Justinline: Oh man . . . this Hey Joe rendition has got me in a trance (Redondo Beacn, CA).
	2:26am Mike Sin: David S -- I think there were two versions of that LP. Will have to check.
	2:42am Elwyn: I've got to go. I enjoyed your show Mike!
	2:45am Terre T: This has to be the best show you've ever done! I love it--throwing many curves and the pacing and mixes are amazing! I gotta go to sleep now-but i don't want to!
	2:46am Mike Oz: David S, yes, "Paxton Street Carnival" was on the original 1st album by The Strawberry Alarm Clock, 'Incense And Peppermints'. Perhaps your tape came from a later compilation such as the 1990 release titled 'Incense & Peppermints' (note ampersand) which includes only four tracks from the 1st LP plus the B of "Incense ..", "The Birdman Of Alkatrash", and later tracks like "Sit With The Guru" and their 1969 version of "Good Morning Starshine". Mike S, as you say, The Rokes were a UK band working in Italy. They did Italian-language versions of US & UK hits as well as songs by Italian writers in Italian such as the original version (don't know the title) of "Let's Live For Today" later a US hit for The Grass Roots (who also recorded "Bella Linda", also originally by The Rokes). Phew!
	2:57am David Shortell: Thanks, Mike Oz. No, it wasn't the 1990 comp. So either I've got a lousy memory or my classmate short-changed me!
	6:44am rob: Super Strummer
